New regulation for family physicians

The regulation regarding the amendments to the Family Medicine Regulation was published in the Official Gazette.

Family physicians are paid based on the number of patients they have registered with them. This included a salary cut for patients who haven't seen their family physicians in the last six months.

With the implementation that started in June, some doctors' salaries were paid incompletely.

Following the reactions of physicians, the 6-month period in question was increased to one year with the latest regulation.
